Catching Up: San Francisco Zoo and Chocolate

The other while, dracosphynx had a yen to hit up the San Francisco Zoo, so I tagged along, with the customary bribe of a donut for getting up and being ready to roll that early. ;) It's been a while so I'm going to be fuzzy about the animals we saw.

Catching Up: Google Kitsmas and Night Lights

The Google holiday party this year was held at the California Academy of Sciences. I've actually been there recently but dracosphynx would have wanted me to go... So I struggled to get myself out the door and onto the shuttle from the Mountain View campus.
